There is no fr-CA language dialect dialect file, nor has there
been in the espeak/espeak-ng history.
The fr-CA phoneme table defined the additional phonemes [U], [y"],
[E:], and [A]. The fr-FR phoneme table mapped these to [u], [y],
[E], and [a] respectively. This meant to describe the phonemes that
have not been merged in fr-CA, but have merged in fr-FR, as described
in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebec_French_phonology.
The only use of these phonemes in the French dictionary was with
the word "tramway" using [E:]. This has been replaced with [E] to
match the rest of the dictionary file transcriptions, and those
phonemes for fr-CA have been removed.
If fr-CA is supported in the future, the French dictionary would
need to be modified to reverse the merger of the phonemes that are
not merged in fr-CA, with the merge logic being performed in the
fr-FR phoneme table like in the code being removed in this commit.
These are some improvements to the german voices, both default and mbrola. It fixes some sounds of phonemes and also pronunciation of words. I also modified the mbrola phoneme and voice files to make them sound more natural. The stressLength setting is that it matches the way espeak deals with the lengths.
Remove the IPA phoneme table and associated und-fonipa voice.
Supporting phoneme-based voices in espeak-ng is currently complex,
and has issues that need to be fixed in the core code before
adding support for them.
